Jimmy's Gifts 2

Jimmy plucks up his loved one. George (playful): "You'll never guess what it iiiiiis!"He produces a rectangular glob of processed meat. "It's a damn luncheon loaf, lad!The mysterious loaf bounces on the table."That's a dadblasted olive loaf! 'n' it's all fer you! Cut the crap outta that sucker, boy!"Jimmy wonders what feels so good and George tells him the secret. "That's GOD'S meat, son! Probably has every one of His creatures ground up inside! Christ hisself prob'ly doesn't know who the *%#@!! is in there! Mebbe even some Goddamned Angel Cows!"They have a moment of silent prayer. Then Jimmy prepares to serve luncheon.George can't wait to taste every one of God's creatures in one magnificent sparkling all-American loaf.The loaf offers no resistance as Jimmy slices lunch up in a mad frenzy with his unspoiled virgin blade.to be continued...with apologies to Danny Antonuccijust in case you thought I made this up...I actually had to eat this stuff at lunch when I was a kid! It induced instant puke every time.

Paul - I think there are no front views in the model sheets because as John said, the model sheets were made from the drawings done on the layouts. So unless there was a specific need to have the character facing forward, it wouldn't be on the model sheet.

The practice of doing a rotation for the character wasn't how it was done initially.

It's a good thing you didn't do this story for a children's show. Parents and religious crazies would have crapped themselves and worried that kids would cut people to peices to eat olive loaf. Like kids would ever eat olive loaf.

i also ate olive loaf-theres also the mysterios "spice" ham and lets not forget "cooked" ham-the things they fed us still disturbs me-i know all the parental units meant well and ive suffered no lasting ill effects i can determine but when youre middle aged and you still cant figure out what that stuff actually is - its disturbing! george liqour has an open invition to all the mystery meat i will no longer consume-gods meat for gods manly man.

Reminds me of the time I projectile vomited directly into the garbage can of the lunch room of Sarasota Junior High. The grits did it to me. They popped right out of the lunch tray in a vacu-formed mold. The freaking grits WOBBLED at the end of my fork. I ate 'em anyway out of pure spite just to prove I could do it.

John, I'm deeply disappointed! I thought at first you were going to recognize the glory of Olive Loaf(let's not forget it's zippy cousin, Pickle and Pimento Loaf!) then I read on and saw your blasphemous comments! Forced! Olive Loaf IS a gift right from heaven! It's sandwich plus salty side snack all in one! No more brine-y fingertips for you! So sad right now...
